A model that scores brilliantly on your test set and collapses in deployment is not unlucky. It is the normal outcome of four specific mistakes, and each one has a name, a mechanism and a fix.

A language model will give you a citation that does not exist, in the same calm tone it uses for things that are true. That is not a bug someone forgot to fix — it follows from how the machine works. Here is what is actually happening, and what reliably reduces it.
